Eddie Murphy’s refusal to do his excellent imitation of Bill Cosby in the Saturday Night Live anniversary special isn’t exactly surprising. First of all, Eddie had some resentment toward SNL- after he left, they felt free to poke fun at him. Eddie’s run-ins with transvestites made him a delightful target. After police caught Eddie with a drag queen, several more cross-dressers came forward and sold stories about their adventures with Eddie. (The one police caught him with mysteriously died later after falling off a roof.) It was a humiliating time for Eddie and he never forgot. That’s why he didn’t want to pick on Bill Cosby – either he feels sorry for Bill (who happens to be GUILTY) or he was afraid his own embarrassing stories would be dredged up.

Cosby and Murphy share the same attorney, Marty singer.

Why did he even go on the show then, just to stand there?

By mister bajaOn February 19, 2015 at

Bill is just too big to immitate.

@Philberto Cardenez-

Well, you know, Cosby probably got Janet too. Lol.

I wish he got me.

Poor little perverted imposter. BLACK Bill didn’t want you but no doubt you have been “gotten” by gays of all races. Your love of all things Strom just isn’t going to get you anywhere…envy never does! Go back to your call center pod.

I’m sure Murphy does not want to point fingers. He has plenty to hide.

Thank you for your support.

Small minded little imposter…it so likes to follow Strom and try to be like him!

By NoblecascadeOn February 20, 2015 at

He didn’t seemed too thrilled to be there.

I don’t think Eddie Murphy can laugh at himself or not take things too seriously. Which seems kind of odd for a comic, but that’s how he comes across.

NEW UPDATE CHECK IT OUT - HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT!

Love him or hate him, this guy is a loudmouth who doesn’t hesitate to tell it like he sees it- but there’s one thing he NEVER talks about: his prostate problem. Long story short: he LEAKS! He likes to project an image of macho virility, but under his custom made suits are custom made “diapers.” He’s VERY self-conscious and has absorbent but undetectable “panty liners” sewn into all his underwear, to avoid wet spots. Thanks to his arrogant behavior, he has more than a few enemies and he’s terrified his secret will be exposed and he’ll be forever ridiculed!
